Slag Tag Media+ FAQs

Right now we are offering STM+ for free with no subscription fee. One day we may go back to a paid subscription model but for now we see a need for these type of daily articles and want to help as much as we can.
Who pays for these articles?
Great question! Since we decided to make these articles free and remove the subscription fee, we started an advertising system that you will see on articles, posts and other parts of our website. That is helping us keep these articles being shared daily.
